MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Over time the ground underneath concrete begins to settle, causing voids between the ground and concrete. This can than cause the concrete to sink into the void, leaving large spaces between concrete slabs. Mudjacking is a temporary solution, and over time, it causes the same issue. Injecting PolyLevel offers a permanent solution to sunken slabs. The lightweight material offers less weight to the failing soil, preventing future soil settlements. PolyLevel uses an accurate injection that fills the voids, and then lifts, levels, and stabilizes the concrete.

Homeowner Jim contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when he learned that they offered concrete lifting and leveling. The PolyLevel that we offer is a foam that is injected under the concrete slab the foam fills the void under the slab that was the cause of the sinking. The foam expands and hardens to lift the concrete back to its former position. 

This Chillicothe, IL home recently underwent a renovation project. Included in that renovation project was a new radon mitigation system to ensure radon levels are below the recommended level. The premium radon mitigation system protects residents from toxic radon gas, the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers. 

Stan and Mary have lived in their home for over ten years and they have recently noticed more rain then they use to get which concerned them. They had goals to one day finish the basement ,but before they could do that, they needed to make sure that their basement was going to stay dry. When they contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems they were just looking to see what they needed to have done. Design Specialist Troy Hamilton went above and beyond to help them understand all of the issues with their space and how he could help them. After Troy explained the options for the home, Stan and Mary decided that a full water guard perimeter and a sump pump were the best options for them and the quality of their home.

After Troy explained the options for the home Stan and Mary decided that a full water guard perimeter and a sump pump were the best options for them and the health of their home. The patented WaterGuard system is designed to meet these challenges and keep your basement dry. WaterGuard is engineered so it doesn't sit in the dirt so that it does not get clogged by silt and sediment under the floor. The WaterGuard System is applicable to all types of foundations including block, poured concrete and stone. Along with the WaterGuard system Stan and Mary also had a TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is a three-pump system that comes with a battery back-up and a WaterWatch Alarm. With the battery back up you can make sure that the pump runs even if you have power issues during a storm. The WaterWatch Alarm is to make sure you know if the water gets to high in the pump.
